Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26658453

Novartis Oncology (previously Novartis) is developing WNT-974 (formerly LGK 974), a first-in-class selective small molecule inhibitor of O-acyltransferase. WNT-974 is under development for the treatment of cancers that are driven by the Wnt pathway in a Wnt ligand-dependent manner. Upon oral administration, WNT-974 binds to and inhibits PORCN in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which blocks post-translational acylation of Wnt ligands and inhibits their secretion. This prevents the activation of Wnt ligands, interferes with Wnt-mediated signaling, and inhibits cell growth in Wnt-driven tumors. Porcupine, a membrane-bound O-acyltransferase (MBOAT), is required for the palmitoylation of Wnt ligands, and plays a key role in Wnt ligand secretion and activity. Wnt signaling is dysregulated in a variety of cancers

Sample Use Guides

10 mg of WNT-974 daily by mouth
Route of Administration: Oral
Ascites cells from ovarian cancer patients were treated with 1 uM WNT-974 for 7 days. Flow cytometry demonstrated fewer cells from ascites samples in the G2 phase and more in the G1 and S phases after treatment with WNT-974.
